Hi, I think lonopin is safe in pregnancy but there should be some valid indication. It is generally given if a woman had 3 or more miscarriages or having any autoimmune disease. Also it should be started before 14 to 16 weeks to exert its effects. After that it's efficiency is not well proven. It is started as soon as the heart beat appears in the baby and continued till 37 weeks. Discuss with your doctor regarding this. Hope it helps.
